Renault Duster [2012-2015] User Reviews

Exterior Smart outlook. Looks very solid. With a 7 seater option Duster shall be a winner. When one is looking for a SUV to Sedan - 7 seater is a must. With out 7 seater option it defeats to be called SUV.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) There are rooms for improvments. Rear seat leg room is dissapointing. Huge boot soace has spoiled the seating comfort. You have less room and your laugage has enough room space. By reducing boot space if Duster can have 7 seater then this is going to be the winner. Front seat arm rest is missing. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine sound seems very smooth. Fuel economy best in class.

Ride Quality & Handling Enjoyed test drive.

Final Words More point of service shall bring in confidence.

Areas of improvement Duster has to be a 7 seater to be a winner. It is possible and just a decession away by Renault. If 7 seater option is comming, I may decide for Quanto only because it is 7 seater.

GoodCant spend so much for boot space

Exterior A nice looking SUV.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Comforatable seating , good head rest, sufficient leg space.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is good. But once you reach 100km speed you feel bit slow to take to 130 or more.

Ride Quality & Handling Very good in highways and rough roads. Like the driving in hill station roads. Good control over vechicle. Easily you can drive in average of 90kms in any mountain roads.

Final Words I booked my vehicle during the lauch day and got delivery on Aug 14th 2012. I had a good experience from Bangalore dealer and really satisfied with their service. After sales team also really helfull in case of any emergencies. The only thing I observed was ,all show rooms in Banglore were over crowded, thats why they were not getting enough time to spend with each and every customer.

Areas of improvement Quality of wiper blades are not upto the mark. Central locks now requires manual intervension to get it locked. It should be automatic. Little more strong body.

Engine smoothness, Leg Space, Boot Space and LookPulling after 100Km speed

Exterior Macho look, Efficcient tyres,  a true youngster

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Decent Enough, could have added more features

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

1. Good engine

2. Once you slow down needs time for pick up

3.Good fuel efficiency even while crusing at 100 kmph

4.Worst gear box, you will notice this while changing gear put your hand on gear road , you will feeel as if gear box and gear road synchronization is hub long.

Ride Quality & Handling

1. Very bumpy car

Final Words

Its a good car for the money being spent a good mainaintance will ensure better performance and seriuosly no rough driving assuming it as a suv

My car is about 8 months old and i have done 24000 Kms

1. Good car for the price qouted

2. should have done something with rear look

3. other wise its a good car

Areas of improvement  

1. Should try towards bringing new look to rear

2. doors should have double beading, single beading is allowing outside air and is very irritating whe you cruise at 100 and above.

1.Macho LookYou hear out side air when crusing at 100 + KMPH

Exterior The looks are a treat to everyones eyes the car has got attitude which u will love everyone will stop and stare. unfortunately the duster is prone to get scratchs in the  rear wheel area as it is a bit bulged and a driver must have a good perception of the car before he drives.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) For the price you pay the duster is offering you fewer features compared to hyundai. But by adding 1.5  lac to  the cost of an i20 you are getting a SUV which is great the car has got good seating position  and no bucket seats which can add  comforts to a tall  people the car works  tirelessly on long drives and the car feels planted even above speeds of 120 kmph which is a great advantage.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is a proven engine. The car looks togive less economy on cities but it  give decent mileages on highways. Gearbox is  not perfect but manangeable.

Ride Quality & Handling The car will give great amount of satisfaction of driving a big car. but handles like a smalll car even on city roads.

Final Words The customer service of the renault is pathetic and it needs to improve a lot.

Areas of improvement The interior quality needs to improve.

Space , power , stability, ground clearance,Poor plastic , frontage , ground level visibility

I love my duster car.. nise look, nice driving... fun to drive.. mostly fun at mountain &hilly areas no one beat duster performance. Feul economy is good performance good.. but servicing is coaslty.. interiors look not so much atractive.. plz company revised intreior look & seat arrengments...

Pros: Tall boy look Good performance in city and on highways Nice road grip Heavy built to suit Indian roads Great fuel economy Good ground clearance Comfortable on long road trips Large cabin space Cons: Cabin noise could have been reduced After Service needs more customer centric Often I hear gear box sound

The showroom staff nice&gentle after sales services is also good. Riding wise this car always amazed me on every kind of roads.it glides through the potholes and you don't feel them at all love the suspension. Engine is underpowered a little but it doesn't feel at all and punchy performance. Looks wise every single person loves it's looks. After sales services is good maintenance wise it's a bit costly but man it's a mini SUV. Look for some event or camps to get discounts. Cons- only some points which is not major so I wouldn't tell any cons. Pros- biggest pro one's I did a 1000 km ride I got mileage of 22.2 so loved it.

Duster,one of the suv purchased in 13 lakhs but give comfort of sitting in xuv500. Awesome off-road performance while riding in fields and even if it crosses speed of 120 kmph then also on applying brakes stands at it place within few meters . Best for family and it’s a beast in affordable price. In short it’s a GHODA
